Artemis Device
The Artemis device is a 3-D imaging navigation system that allows us to image the prostate and take pictures in order to overlap them with a real-time ultrasound to help guide needles during biopsy. This allows doctors to take future biopsies in the exact same spot of the prostate as previous lesions were found, allowing them to better monitor the troublesome part of the gland. A UCLA study published in the Journal of Urology found that targeted biopsies were three times likelier than conventional biopsies to detect cancer.
